Dynamic Drug Dealer v2.2 - 4.4 > 5.0

Drunken Cheetah · December 10, 2020

Before we begin. This has been made for and tested on the latest release for AsYetUntitled.

Description:

Dynamic Drug Dealer, changes position every X minutes and stays put for X minutes. Compatible with any object/character in Arma 3 for both civ's for store and cops for "Question Dealer".

THIS SCRIPT UTILIZES THE LIFE_SERVER FOLDER. BEFORE CONTINUING, PLEASE MAKE SURE TO MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR LIFE_SERVER FOLDER. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY MISTAKES MADE.

If you don't have it already, create a folder in your life_server > Functions.
Create a new file called: fn_initDD.sqf inside that document, add the following;

#include "\life_server\script_macros.hpp"

/*
	Author: Drunken Cheetah
	File: fn_initDD.sqf

	Desc: Initializes drug dealer before changing spots begins.
*/

//sleep(5*60);		//testing
sleep(10*60);
[]spawn TON_fnc_drugdealerInit;

Save that file, and heaed over to life_server >> config.cpp and add the following under TON_Systems

class missions {
			file = "\life_server\Functions\Scripts";
			class initDD {};
			class drugdealerInit {};
		};

save that file, and head to life_server >> init.sqf and add the following after;

life_wanted_list = [];

>>

[] execVM "\life_server\Functions\Scripts\fn_initDD.sqf";

Create a new file in the scripts folder called fn_drugdealerInit.sqf and add the following inside;

#include "\life_server\script_macros.hpp"

/*
    File Name: fn_drugdealerInit.sqf
	Author: Drunken Cheetah  
	Desc: Dynamic drug dealer, moves position every X minutes.
	Version: 2.2
*/

private["_drug1","_positions","_spawnPos","_man","_stayTime","_debug"];
if(LIFE_SETTINGS(getNumber, "enable_drugDealer") isEqualTo 0) exitWith {};
_man = LIFE_SETTINGS(getText, "man_to_use"); 
_stayTime = LIFE_SETTINGS(getNumber, "drugDealer_position_time");

//change locations here. Make sure each new location has the brackets around it when replacing. e.g [1,2,3,4],
_positions = [[8362.88,12441.3,-3.8147e-006],[15769.8,10645,0],[25372.6,20334.4,1.17488],[14312.4,17413.7,1.90735e-006]];
_spawnPos = _positions select floor random count _positions;

_drug1 = createMarker ["drug_dealer",_spawnPos];
"drug_dealer" setMarkerColor "ColorEast";
"drug_dealer" setMarkerType "mil_dot";
"drug_dealer" setMarkerText "Drug Dealer";

dd = createVehicle [_man,_spawnPos, [], 0, "CAN_COLLIDE"];
[dd,[localize "STR_MAR_Question_Dealer",life_fnc_questionDealer,"",0,false,false,"",'isNull objectParent player && player distance _target < 5 && playerSide isEqualTo west && !life_action_inUse']] remoteExec ["addAction",0,dd];
[dd,["Drug Dealer",life_fnc_virt_menu,"drugdealer",0,false,false,"",'playerSide isEqualTo civilian']] remoteExec ["addAction",0,dd];
dd allowDamage false;
dd enableSimulation false;

sleep(_stayTime * 60);
[3,"<t align='center'><t size='2.4'><t color='#FF0000'>Drug Dealer</t></t><br/> The drug dealer is packing up and moving to a new location. When he arrives, his new location will be marked on map!"] remoteExecCall ["life_fnc_broadcast",0];
deleteMarker "drug_dealer";
deleteVehicle dd;

[]spawn TON_fnc_initDD;

save that file, and repack your life_server PBO.

Heaed over to your mission folder, and open up config >> config_master.hpp and add the following to it

//Drug Dealer - Drunken Cheetah
enable_drugDealer = true;			//Enable/Disable dynamic dealer -- If false, drug dealer wont be on the map at all. Will be changed next version
drugDealer_position_time = 45;		//In minutes
man_to_use = "C_man_hunter_1_F";	//Character/Object to use as the Drug Dealer

Save that file, and re-pack if need be.

Head to the editor, and find your locations for where you want the drug dealer. The current locations are actual locations in Altis at okay-ish locations according to my server.

The easiest way to get a new location, is place an object in the location you want, right click the object and click Log > Location.
It will be copied to your clipboard, with the required brackets around it.

Make sure to re-pack your mission, & life_server and you should be good to go.
The script will run 10 minutes after the server starts, and the drug dealer will change positions every 45 minutes, thereafter.

Please update your file with the following;

    };
};

if (_type isEqualType []) then {

        case 2: {titleText[format ["%1",_message],"PLAIN"];};
		case 3: {hint parseText format ["%1", _message]};
    };
};

Then you should be good to go.

If you copied the entire post, it will work. So something else must be wrong with your files.

Here you say to save it in life_server\functions

But then here

You are calling it from life_server\Functions\Scripts\fn_initDD.sqf NOT life_server\Functions\fn_initDD.sqf as the OP suggests.
